KPC team visits Valley

A team of Kashmiri Pandit Conference (KPC) led by its national president Kundan Kashmiri visited Kashmir Valley to ascertain the problems of Hindu minorities there and also ascertain the condition of the religious places and temples of the community.

Mr Kashmiri met a cross section of the members of KP community still living in Valley and interacted with them on their day to day problems. He criticized the Government for its total failure in protecting the shrines and temples property in Valley and delaying the passage of Hindu Shrines and Relilgious Places Bill despite its promise.

He said that return of some youth for purpose of jobs can’t be taken as a ground for the return of the community as hostilities still continue though there is some change on the ground.

He reiterated the long pending demand of settlement of the community in a single place which is the only viable solution to the problems of the displaced people.

Besides consolidation rehabilitation, he demanded high level inquiry commission to probe genocide of the KPs, passage of KP Shrines and Religious Places Bill, action under law against the killers of the community, four constituencies in exile for KPs till their return to Valley, funds earmarked for migrants be exclusively spent for the welfare of the community, distress sale be declared null and void and release of remaining 50 percent ex-gratia.
